Seriously... if I had the money, I'd so buy this houseboat. *sigh* A girl can dream, right? lol I told my Dad about it and he was like... I'll buy it! XD Of course, he wasn't serious... got my hopes up and all.

Edit: Looks like they just lowered the price to $129,000 for it on July 9th. My Dad's interest just got perked. XD

There's a cute video on YouTube the owners put up. The ending is kinda funny. lol

WARNING! There is some language. I do apologize if this has already been posted. >_<

I saw this when it first got posted but I didn't notice the pictures on the wall with shots of the house from the show. I also don't remember seeing the SAK and duct tape beside the bed the first time I saw it.

I can't even believe it's still on the market! It's been waiting for us!

Haha, and that video was cute.

Her enthusiasm about everything reminded me of Penny XD.

Come on, what's the worst that could happen?!

The potential for MacGyver themed murder-mystery weekends alone has got to be worth it!

If I could afford it I'd buy it and turn it into a MacGyver museum.

KiwiTek, I've thought the same thing.

If I could afford it, I'd hire contractors to re-do the exterior to the way it looked on "MacGyver".

I've also thought that if I had the money, I'd hire a builder to build me a float home that looks just like Mac's both on the outside and the inside, using the actual pieces from the set. I'm sure some of them still exist somewhere.

On a separate but related note, I LOVE the coffee table Mac had in front of his couch in the float home. Most coffee tables are too small and too dainty. Mac's was solid looking and very manly.

Speaking of coffe tables. The worst one I ever had was about 3' by 1-1/2' and it was made up of a bunch of parallel slats about 1 inch wide with about 1 inch in between them. It looked sort of like an extendable finger board, like the kind you use to make a platform between two ladders.

Dumbest table I've ever seen.
